The movie will be shown in both theater and DVD. The reason I like the HDV is that clients think it’s better and would hire only someone who shoots with it. It’s that HDV fad that makes the sale… even if they don’t really know which camera/ format shoots better. How do you educate these people?

Thanks! I’ll try that.

Thank you very much. I was about to buy it… good thing I posted that question before making any purchase decision. But is it possible to buy the education version and then later put in the plugins? Or should I just buy the commercial version?

[Cow_fan]

Thanks. I’ll use the the Sony then. I really don’t care much about 24p. I think picture resolution is more important.

I was thinking that by using the progressive mode by shooting in 24p, I will make the stair-stepping go away. I thought that the stair-stepping was there because it was shot in interlaced mode. Am I right?

If I use the Panasonic, and the picture is blown up to the size of a movie theater screen, is it like watching a VHS tape on T.V.? Is it that bad? Or worse?

Now if I use the FX1, can I just use the Magic Bullet plugin to convert everything to progressive? Thanks.

I forgot to ask, where is the odometer located on the DVX 100? I don’t want to look like a newbee when examining the camcorder. Thanks 🙂

[Cow_fan]

Thanks a lot 🙂

What is the maximum acceptable drum hour? Someone is selling me a used DVX 100 (without the a nor b) with the LCD broken. Haven’t asked him about the drum hour yet. thanks.
